Well I just thought I would give a update on my 57 GMC. Just ran the engine in the cradle and she sounds great. New pistons, liners, O/H head, injectors, and blower. New rods and main bearings and seals. Best of all it did not smoke when started. We getting the clutch and tranmission back in and will be setting it back in bus. Maybe I have a good motor and try to make a busin someday !!!  | ||

Very nice. I bet it sounds great. My ear is beginning to appreciate and perhaps maybe even prefer the soothing music of a DD diesel over the rasping wail of Italian V12s from Mr Enso or Ferrucio. | ||
